 Kent:
West and the Weald (Pevsner Buildings of England S.)
Tour Kent. This volume covers buildings as different as the
modernist suburb of New Ash Green and the ragstone sobriety
of Knole, originally the Archbishop's palace and little altered
since its seventeenth-century remodelling. West Kent has notable
domestic buildings of all periods, from the timber-framed 'Wealden'
house to the Palladian masterpiece of Mereworth Castle and Philip
Webb's Red House built for William Morris, the Arts-&-Crafts
house par excellence. The Norman castle and cathedral at Rochester
make an unforgettable pairing, while Hildenborough church is
but one of many delights in an area unusually rich in Victorian
church architecture. The elegant townscape of Tunbridge Wells
and the Georgian dockyards at Chatham further demonstrate the
breadth of building to be found in this area.

 Haunted
Kent (Images of England S)

hunchbacked monk at Boughton Malherbe, the black dog of Leeds
and the tale of Lady Blanche of Rochester Castle. This collection
of strange sightings and happenings in the streets, churches,
public houses and lanes is for those who want to know why Kent
is known as the most haunted county in England.
 Kent:
North East and East (Pevsner Buildings of England S.)
Tour Kent. At the heart of this volume lies a discussion of
Canterbury and its outstanding Cathedral, site of St Thomas
a Becket's shrine and significant in countless ways for the
history of medieval art and architecture but especially memorable
for its stunning stained glass. Other churches vary from remains
of St Augustine's early Anglo-Saxon mission churches to Pugin's
St Augustine at Ramsgate. Smaller buildings demonstrate Kent's
especially fine and varied mixture of materials: the native
ragstone and flint, exceptionally good brick and tile, and timber-framed
hall houses, indicative of Kent's wealth in the fifteenth century.
But Kent looks towards the continent too, its defensive and
marine history maked by its medieval and sixteenth-century castles,
such as Deal and Chilham, and coastal towns and ports as different
as Dover and Ramsgate.
 Canterbury
Streets (Images of England S)

detail the history of the people and places contained within

of the old streets' names, how they have changed and the new
routes in this many layered city.
